“…The demographic data of patients in the study presented are repeated in the different series reviewed [14,[21][22][23][24], as well as the higher prevalence of right elbow surgery, which in this series was the dominant one in a high percentage (97.9%), a fact that is not repeated in other series [21].…”

“…Tsolias [23] recently published a prospective randomized study in which one group performed a V-Y advancement technique and the other group in the study added the release of the radial nerve by extending it to a Thompson lateral dorsal approach. The MEPS values shown were discreetly better in the nervous release group, but without statistically significant differences, so they conclude that this gesture does not provide clinical improvements.…”

“…The proposed mechanism common to these two conditions is inflammation affecting the extensors and the PIN in its tunnel. However, concurrent surgical treatment for lateral epicondylitis together with PIN release surgery did not yield better outcomes in terms of pain relief or functional improvement [ 84 ]. On the other hand, Abhimanyu et al found that the RN was thickened at the radial groove in 33% of patients and at the cubital fossa in 27% compared to the unaffected side [ 85 ].…”

Radial nerve compression: anatomical perspective and clinical consequences

et al. 2023

The radial nerve is the biggest branch of the posterior cord of the brachial plexus and one of its five terminal branches. Entrapment of the radial nerve at the elbow is the third most common compressive neuropathy of the upper limb after carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel syndromes. Because the incidence is relatively low and many agents can compress it along its whole course, entrapment of the radial nerve or its branches can pose a considerable clinical challenge. Several of these agents are related to normal or variant anatomy. The most common of the compressive neuropathies related to the radial nerve is the posterior interosseus nerve syndrome. Appropriate treatment requires familiarity with the anatomical traits influencing the presenting symptoms and the related prognoses. The aim of this study is to describe the compressive neuropathies of the radial nerve, emphasizing the anatomical perspective and highlighting the traps awaiting physicians evaluating these entrapments.

Purpose: Sociodemographic factors have been shown to influence musculoskeletal health. However, little is known regarding the frequency of reporting and analysis of certain sociodemographic variables (e.g., age, sex, height, weight, body mass index (BMI), race, and ethnicity) in randomized clinical trials (RCTs) pertaining to hand surgery. The purpose of this study was to assess the rate of reporting and analysis of these variables in RCTs published in the Journal of Hand Surgery (JHS). Methods: A systematic review was conducted of RCTs published in JHS between 2015 and 2021. For each study, we determined whether the following sociodemographic variables were reported and/or analyzed: age, sex, height, weight, BMI, race, and ethnicity. Frequencies were reported by year and as a cumulative total. Studies were evaluated using the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool. Results: A total of 45 RCTs met inclusion criteria, with about half (53.3%) originating from the United States. Age (97.8%) and sex (91.1%) were the most frequently reported sociodemographic variables, followed by race (17.8%), BMI (11.1%), and ethnicity (8.9%). Age (17.8%) was the most frequently analyzed variable, followed by sex (13.3%), and race (4.4%); the remaining variables were not analyzed in any study. Conclusions: While age and sex are reported at a high rate, only about 1 in 4 RCTs published in JHS report either race or ethnicity. All sociodemographic variables were infrequently included as part of statistical analysis. The significance of these findings should be recognized and used to interpret and enhance the methodology of future RCTs.
